I'm just a giant carriage to Irlo now. I'm still not very good at talking, but Eterna has been so kinds as to sit on my back and tell where Irlo wants to go. As long as Eterna is awake, otherwise we have to wait a minute for her to wake up.
A funny thing is that not all the babies enjoy being on my back in my dragon form. The dragons love it, of course, and the older kids are happy, though so don't like it when I get too high up. But the babies are a mixed bag outside of that. The elents don't like it all. The Goddesses like it, but they also probably understand what is happening better than the rest.
Aurora has had fun marking how each child reacts to the new activity. I just hope I didn't scar any of my babies for life. I would like to be able to fly them all around at so point. Aurora doesn't think I have.
While trying out the new body has been a lot of fun, I did miss more of Cornelius's gas. Eliyen was correct about the next gas being easier, or Luck is ssing with things, probably a mix with how those girls like to behave.
Kiyomi sent a few of her citizens over after I gave birth to help with the kids, and hoping I would like one of them enough to get them pregnant. The first thing they learn is that everyone in the house has to be lactating at all tis, besides the kids. They were surprised, but took it in stride, helping when feeding ti ca up.
They all really want to get pregnant. Lucky for them, they're kind of cute, so we'll see how it goes.
"Do I take Man? Is that really his na? That doesn't sound right," I say.
"I think he may be the first to get a nickna," Geta says. "Lactation kind of has a nickna right now with Milk also working, but I could see another goddess being born that takes milk from her. But it's hard to tell."
"Tom? Would that work? Or is that too plain?" I ask. "I guess Man for now till he can talk and tell us if he wants a different na. But back to the actual question. Should I take him? He wouldn't cheat for Cornelius, right?"
"No, he won't be able to help Cornelius to cheat," Geta says. "But are you sure you want to go? You just gave birth."
"Cornelius only has a few gas left, Eliyen thinks. Anyone could be the last. I want to have one ga and think about how much fun it'll be to show up as a rainbow dragon!" I say. Irlo ca up with the idea. Wanting her Daddy to show off how cool he is, I guess. It took a bit to convince Nanoka to help, but when I ntioned tail grooming, she couldn't say no.
It is going to be grand, flying around as a giant glowing rainbow dragon before diving down towards the stadium. Irlo was hoping I would wait till the last second to transform and teleport into the box seat, but I'm not risking that when I've only been a true dragon for a few days. That is just asking for a massive accident. So I'll transform a bit higher up, and Nanoka moves into the box where Shyla then has to work quickly to dress .
That is the part that got Nanoka hung up about the plan. She's worried about flashing everyone and didn't think my logic that everyone there has already seen naked was enough to risk the timing. Geta is going to join us and hide my nakedness from everyone in the transfer. That and the grooming were enough to get Nanoka on board.
"He is still a baby, so he should be fine to take, My Empress," Kou says. "I'm more worried about Irlo. I know she wants to see the entrance, but the ga could take a while, and I'm sure she'll get bored."
"Aurora can co, and that will keep her acting on her best behavior," I say.
"She has to teach the rest of the kids, My Empress," Kou says.
"Ah, yes," I say. "They are all taking lessons. Um, Nanoka can return her if she gets bored? But she's a princess. I don't think everyone has spoiled her so much that she won't behave in public."
"I'm fine helping her escape if need be," Nanoka says. "Can't bla the girl for wanting to see her plan in action. I'm excited to see everyone's reaction as well."
"Great, so that should be everything," I say. "You all go straight to the box while I fly in. Geta sends a ssage when she starts to blur . I transform, then Nanoka moves into the box where Shyla puts in a simple dress. Anything I'm missing?"
"No, that has it all, My Empress," Kou says.
I really do abuse my wife's skills.
"When should we head out?" I ask.
"Now, My Empress," Kou says. "You can just fly for a bit longer if we're early, but it should be the right timing if we go now."
"Ti for so fun," I say.
...
"Hello, Love," Space says.
This ti she took us to the living room. Sky is floating around the room, looking more like a toddler now than a baby. It's annoying how fast kids grow up, and then the Goddesses go so much quicker, and then the ones I hardly see grow up the fastest. Contract looks older than Irlo now.
"Daddy!" Sky shouts and cos zipping over to . I pull her into a hug and wait for Space to yell at about the newest divine being.
"I'm not going to yell about Sky's brother," Space chuckles. "But you have got so of us grumbling. But it's a good thing. Mother wasn't fixing things as she should be. She's been there to help Power with their kid and make sure Sky knows her sisters, but she wasn't helping the mortal realms like she should've been. So still joke that Death is more active in Fertility's temple than Fertility. It's better, but we both know it isn't as fast as it needs to be. This was good for the world. I wonder if my next ones will cause a stir like him. It's good that you'll be raising him down there where he'll have so brothers to play with."
"Yes, that is a good thing," I say. "I do hope that at least a few more Gods are created so he can have friends when he grows up."
"We'll see," Space says. "But how about we worry about our daughter?"
"Of course," I say. "Have to make the most of the visit. Shall we fly around?"
"YES!" Sky shouts.
"Let's go," I chuckle.
...
"Ok, now I just have to strip," I say. We're outside Space's temple, so nobody is around besides my wives and my kids. "Once you all get far enough away."
I'm not really good at the whole stripping while transforming thing. Eterna says it takes a while to learn, and you have to have simple clothing around that can handle moving in and out of storage without issue. Shyla can handle getting the right clothing; I just need to figure out how to combine them. I could have... No, I shouldn't have a Goddess do that. But it would be funny to force one to help .
Nanoka teleports them all to the box, and I just have to start flying. Shyla will section off a little corner for Nanoka to put in, so we don't have to worry about Irlo seeing naked.
I climb up to the few clouds in the sky. I was hoping for more cover so I could get closer before everyone would see , but I haven't created Weather yet. Maybe I could've paid Sky to do sothing about it, but I shouldn't encourage my kids to expand into affinities that aren't theirs.
I'll have to count on Irlo telling everyone's reaction because I can only see them all staring at as I close into the event space.
I make a big circle around the event, climbing higher since the sky is clear here. Give myself more room to dive down. Do I roar as I fall? No, Nanoka said, there are so kids here besides Irlo, so I shouldn't scare them.
When I've climbed to where I can feel the air thin around , I start my dive. I pull my wings in and head face-first towards the ground.
Faster and faster I fall, waiting for Geta to tell to transform.
'Now.'
I retract my mana, and Nanoka pulls into the box.
"Here we go, Empress Alzi," Shyla says. "Just a mont. Underwear first."
"I know how to get dressed," I say.
"Just making sure you know what all we're putting on," Shyla says. "But very well. What shoes do you want?"
"Heels are fine," I say. "You can make them big."
"As you wish, Empress Alzi," Shyla Chuckles.
The dress covers completely. I'm already back to my slim self. The pregnancy weight is just fading off . I think that is the first sign that I'm turning into a Goddess. I've never gotten slim this fast. It's been a decade since I was this thin. I didn't have the sa tits back then, but it feels good not to be a massive ball waddling around for once. We'll see how long it lasts. Hopefully, I make it to Yzzorres giving birth, and I can deal with her complaining then to get the three kids I owe her in my next pregnancy.
"Is anyone else in the box?" I ask.
"No," Shyla says. "Eliyen has to prepare for her gas, and the other n were called back ho, unfortunately. It will be just your family."
"That's fine," I say. "If Irlo gets bored, I can play with her for a bit, and then we can all get sucked into the ending. Kou, you're going to have to tell us what is going on if the announcers ignore Cornelius again."
"Of course, My Empress," Kou says.
"So, Irlo, how did I look?" I ask.
"AMAZING! I still think I should've been riding on top of you," Irlo says.
"Never going to happen when I have to dive down," I say. "Not until you learn how to fly yourself."
"I would be fine, and it would be so majestic!" Irlo says. "But fine. Everyone was watching! They were in awe of my brilliant idea."
Yes, her idea and not the beautiful dragon in the air. This girl. "Of course," I say. "It made for a wonderful entrance. We'll see what the announcers have to say about it. The players look to be coming in now."
"Welco back, everyone," the announcers say. "Thank you, Empress Alzi, for that wonderful show to start us off. You are beautiful in all forms and shine brightly. We hope your newborns are doing well, and we are honored you decided to join us so soon after giving birth. Thank you again for letting us set up on the castle grounds. We're able to host almost all the gas of this round on the main floor thanks to your wonderful help. This will be the last round held here. After this round, we'll be moving back to the temple to finish off the tournant. But now that the players are all seated. Start the clocks!"
All forms. Soone has seen in the brothel.
"Well, let's see how they start," I say.
...
"Is he winning?" I ask.
"I don't think so, My Empress," Kou says. "But I'm not familiar with this endga. It could be a winning position, but I would imagine it would take perfect play to win."
"Eliyen said it would be hard to get farther than this. But it's good he made it this far," I say. "Well, I shouldn't count him out. Oh, did he just surrender?"
"Yes, My Empress," Kou says. "It requires perfect play to win the end ga, but he didn't have all the information he needed to play perfectly, Is my guess at what happened. He played a great ga."
"The ga outlasted most of the other gas," I say. "He did well. Are his wives still in the tournant?"
"All but one, and she lost in the last round. The rest won their ga already."
"So he'll go spend ti with them instead of coming here," I say.
"No, he'll be coming up, My Empress," Kou says, raising her eyebrow.
Oh, yeah, you can't just ignore the Empress who made her presence well known. I hope he doesn't mind. Did I put too much pressure on him?
"Empress Alzi," Cornelius says. "Thank you for coming to watch . Sorry, it was a lose. But I made it farther than I should've."
"You played well," I say. "I want you to et a new God. The God of n."
"We have our own Goddess?" Cornelius asks.
"No, the first god," I say.
"Oh, that is going to cause so fun problems," Cornelius chuckles. "That is great. Thank you, Alzi. It is an honor to et our God."
"You're the first male not in the family to do so," I say. "He likes you. Co on. Maybe you'll get lucky. Co on. Hold him. They take after , so they're nice."
Oh, how funny it would be if he beca a champion. n having a champion. He would have to beco the strongest in his family. What would they do then? Please. I need to see what happens.
As soon as Cornelius touches Man, I see the small white light flash. "Looks like he believes in you," I say. "You must have impressed him out there, new Champion."
"You can't space these things out a bit?" Geta asks.
"I'm not the cause of most of them," I say. "I'm just always there. Now, Cornelius, I'll have to work with Elora to protect you for a bit. Don't need so jealous won causing you so problems."
"Ummm, yes, thank you, Empress Alzi," Cornelius says.
"Take a seat, and we can talk for a bit," I say. "I think you need so ti to think about things."
"That sounds wonderful," Cornelius says. "I am lucky to have t you and then got to see you a second ti."
"I'm happy to have a friend," I say. "Luck was born after both etings, so I don't think it was Luck's fault that we saw each other for a second ti."
"You and your divine beings," Cornelius says.
"I do have a lot of them."
